Lacombe is a delightful old double-storey farmhouse set in seven acres of land that borders the river Lot. It has private access to the River Lot.
Lacombe is situated in the south west of France in the Lot-et-Garonne department near the village of Ste Livrade, which is only a couple of minutes away by car.
The village market is held every Friday where the local farmers sell their fruit and vegetables, wines, cheeses, flowers and loads of other homemade goodies!
Lacombe is approximately 40 minutes south of Bergerac in the Dordogne,
90 minutes drive from either Bordeaux and Toulouse airports and only 10
minutes from the market town of Villeneuve on the river Lot.
Interior facilities:
The house has four large comfortable double sized bedrooms and sleeps eight people. A baby cot can also be provided upon request.
The bedrooms are decorated to a high standard in a French/African style. Three bedrooms are located on the upper floor, one of which is an ensuite with its own private access. There is also a bathroom with bath, shower and WC available. On the lower floor is the fourth double bedroom, as well as a separate cloakroom with WC and basin.
The kitchen is fitted with all modern appliances such as American fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and has a large dining table that seats eight comfortably. The lounge has comfortable sofas for you to relax on, as well as satellite TV, video and DVD player, which CDs can be played on.
Double doors lead onto the rear shaded terrace, ideal for those hot summer afternoons!
Exterior facilities:
The second terrace is situated on the south side of the house by the enclosed garden and has sunshine all day. It leads to the enclosed private pool area with sun loungers, table and chairs and BBQ facilities.
Board games, videos, DVDs and table tennis are available at no extra charge.
There is private access to the river. Large carp and trout are to be found
in the river for those who like to fish and a handy fishing shop for bait
and equipment is located in the nearby village of Ste Livrade. If you
prefer to sightsee on the river, a canoe is available for your use.
Lacombe is superb for families with children, however, please be aware that the river front is not fenced off from the house, so care should be taken with small children.
There are a number of excellent restaurants in the area providing superb dishes at reasonable prices – recommendations are provided in our information file.
There are plenty of sporting activities in the area – we have two or three excellent golf courses in the region. Castelnaud, approximately 15 minutes drive away, has a championship 18 hole golf course with a driving range, putting green and Pro shop.
Hikers are offered a wide range of possibilities, from registered hiking
trails and local trails that can take days to complete to short circuits
that can be hiked in a few hours or a day.
Horse-riding is another wonderful way of discovering nature and with three
horse-riding centres in the area and numerous bridle paths, Lacombe is
ideally situated for horse-lovers.
The cycling trails often follow the pedestrian or horseback trails, which
allows for safe mountain biking.
The river has an abundance of fish, including large Carp and Trout.
Museums, water parks, chateaux and pre-historic caves abound in the area.
Details of all these attractions and activities are available in a file at the house.
